Hmf, now Exim is having the problem you observed with nano. I'm afraid I
can't help with the details of this since I don't have an AIX box here.
However I can provide some advice that's true to all Unixes.

Your copy of gcc is choking on the system headers, which implies that your
gcc installation is broken. (More broken than just getting the default
object format wrong.) There's a program (IIRC called fixheaders) that gcc
uses during installation to make a copy of the system headers in which
vendor-specific C extensions are replaced with gcc-specific C extensions.
It looks like your gcc doesn't have (or can't find) suitable massaged
copies of the headers.

Perhaps this page will help:
